Samsung UE26EH4000W User Manual

Connections

For better picture and audio quality, connect to a digital device using an HDMI cable.

The picture may not display normally (if at all) or the audio may not work if an external

device that uses an older version of HDMI mode is connected to the TV. If such a problem

occurs, ask the manufacturer of the external device about the HDMI version and, if out of

date, request an upgrade.

Be sure to purchase a certified HDMI cable. Otherwise, the picture may not display or a

connection error may occur.

PC(D-Sub) and PC/DVI AUDIO IN input are not supported.

For HDMI/DVI cable connection, you must use the

HDMI IN 1(DVI)

port.

Connecting through the HDMI cable may not be supported depending on the PC.

If an HDMI to DVI cable is connected to the

HDMI IN 1(DVI)

port, the audio does not work.

Service: Connector for service only.

Still image warning

Avoid displaying still images (like jpeg picture files) or still image element (like TV
programme logo, panorama or 4:3 image format, stock or news bar at screen bottom
etc.) on the screen. Constant displaying of still picture can cause ghosting of LED
screen, which will affect image quality. To reduce risk of this effect, please follow below
recommendations:
• Avoid displaying the same TV channel for long periods.
• Always try do display any image on full screen, use TV set picture format menu for

best possible match.

• Reduce brightness and contrast values to minimum required to achieve desired

picture quality, exceeded values may speed up the burnout process.

• Frequently use all TV features designed to reduce image retention and screen

burnout, refer to proper user manual section for details.
